Partnerships

Local Weekly Briefing considers carefully matched collaborations and partner placements for readers interested in local places and the way they work.

Possible collaborations

We consider educational, cultural and community-minded projects that connect naturally with the publication's subject. A proposal should explain the shared interest, what each party would contribute and how the work would serve readers.

Partner placements

We accept relevant placements across the site when they offer a clear fit for readers. Proposals should state the subject, format, intended destination and any commercial relationship involved. We do not accept material that disguises promotion as independent editorial coverage.

Clear labelling

Partner content and paid placements are labelled so readers can recognise their commercial nature. Editorial coverage remains separate, and a partnership does not guarantee favourable coverage or a particular editorial conclusion.

How to propose

Send a concise proposal through the Contact page. Include the proposed collaboration or placement, its relevance to readers and the best way to follow up; do not assume acceptance until terms are agreed.
